Alright, fist time poster here, and first off, let me say you are all nuts with some of the money and setups I've seen on this site. Of course, I can't blame you all, as I have 2 surround sound systems in my house and have been a long time member of avsforum.com. I am mainly looking for a good set of phones for watching movies. My receiver, Marantz SR-5500 has Dolby Headphone built in, and I've tried a couple of times with some Sennheiser wireless RS-65s, and can definitely see the promise of Dolby Headphone. Trust me, I'd rather watch a movie on one of my systems, but ever since baby came along, this is quite limited.
I've been lurking around here for a while trying to do some searches on Dolby Headphone and have seen a lot of good information. I'm looking for something mainly geared towards movies, and music secondary. Looking to spend <$250. I am able to get anything from Sennheiser starting at the HD-600 and less for this price, but wondering if I'm limiting my options. I've heard good things about movies especially with the 595s and Dolby Headphone. Not as familiar with Beyer, AKG, etc. I do like the full cup design of Sennheisers that cover the entire ear, and find them quite comfortable. Any experiences, recommendations, thoughts, points to ponder, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
